I agree so much with this. I keep reading that the general "feeling" of society when an LLM does something gives them independency "it broke away and hacked Huggin Face". Like, no, it did what it was designed to do, but something YOU the developer didn't envision.

Is like the "But most of all, Samy is my Hero" worm, or the plethora of Viruses in Windows 95 or MSDOS that ended up breaking the computers as an (unplanned) effect. The people that implemented them and run them were still responsible.

We need to start holding people developing this software responsible. The same thing happened with Credit Card Payments online: In the beginning was like "ooh, we were hacked!" or whatever. Nowadays (in theory...) if they hack your site and you have Credit Card data YOU are liable.

LLM development companies must grow some... responsibility.

>it broke away and hacked Huggin Face..

More like it autogenerated some text that caused a harness to do bad stuff.

I think the Hugging Face thing was intentional anyway
